Revision Standard - Active.

A normative definition of wearable cuffless blood pressure (BP) measuring devices and the objective performance evaluation of this kind of device are established in this standard. This standard is independent of the form of the device or the vehicle to which the device is attached or in which it is embedded. All types of wearable BP measurement devices, including epidermal and unobtrusive devices with different modes of operation (e.g., short?term, long?term, snapshot, continuous, beat?to?beat BP, or BP?variability measurement), are covered by this standard. This standard is, however, limited to the evaluation of devices in which a cuff is not used during measurement, and the evaluation of all sphygmomanometers that are used with an occluding or inflatable cuff for the indirect determination of BP on the upper arm or wrist is not covered. Guidelines are provided in this standard for manufacturers to qualify and validate their products, potential purchasers or users to evaluate and select prospective products, and health care professionals to understand the manufacturing practices of wearable BP devices.
